I had my frogs in my main tank when I raised the temp for ich. I lost one frog, he swelled up and stayed half out of the water then died the next day, so I got them out. The remaining three seemed fine, then about a week later another swelled and died the next day.
Of the two left, one is staying near the top, but is not swollen, and refused food when I last fed them two days ago. Since they've been in a tank by themselves, one of them has been sloughing it's skin each time I've looked. Not sure if it's the same one, they look so similar. Today, they've both taken some bloodworms, but one is still near the top.
So, slowly getting to the point (!) how long do they take to shed their skin, is it normal for there to constantly be bits hanging off?
Thanks :)
